Care & Repair
Storing
Storing your garments correctly helps preserve their shape and fabric quality.
Blazers
Keep blazers on wide, structured hangers to support the shoulders and maintain the oversized silhouette. Avoid wire hangers, as they can cause the fabric to stretch or leave marks.
Trousers
Hang tailored trousers on a trouser hanger, folded along the crease to preserve the line and prevent wrinkles. Alternatively, fold them neatly and store flat in your wardrobe.
Top
The bandeau top can be folded and stored flat to protect the elasticated back band and the pleated details. Avoid hanging to prevent stretching.
Mending and Maintaining
Taking small steps in maintaining your garments helps extend their life.
Loose Threads & Small Repairs
A missing button or a loose seam can easily be repaired at home with a basic sewing kit. For more complex alterations, consult a professional tailor.
Embellished & Lace Blazers
For blazers with delicate details like lace, studs, or fringes, handle with extra care. Avoid pulling threads and never iron directly on embellishments. A tailor can assist with professional repairs if needed.
Refreshing Between Wears
Use a steamer to gently remove wrinkles and refresh the fabric. This also reduces the need for frequent washing or dry cleaning.
Washing and Drying
Always follow the care label inside your garment for the best results.
Blazers
- Dry clean only
- Do not bleach
- Do not tumble dry
- Iron on low heat (avoid embellishments and lace details)
Trousers & Top
- Hand wash only (max. 30°C)
- Do not soak
- Do not bleach
- Do not tumble dry
- Iron on low heat
- Professional dry cleaning possible
General Tips
- Wash less often: airing or steaming can refresh garments without washing.
- Protect stretch fabrics: when ironing, place a damp cloth between the garment and the iron to protect elastane.
- Always turn garments inside out before hand washing to protect the fabric and the embroidered logo.
Protecting Your Garments
Fringes & Lace
Store carefully to prevent tangling or snags.
Studded Blazers
Use a garment bag when storing or traveling to avoid damaging other pieces.
Elastic Top Band
Avoid overstretching when putting on the bandeau top; step carefully into it or pull gently over the head.
